So my week begins...

I got my Sonic fix last night but no shopping til my lunch hour today. I almost didn't get to go shopping again today but I squeezed a little in. MawMaw (M's mama)called me this morning because she was making okra gumbo and wanted me to have a bowl with her at lunch. If there is any way to go see MawMaw, I do. She's in her 70's and she can't see very well at all. She's an incredible mother-in-law...she's a good as gold to me...and she and A are best friends. MawMaw will do anything for A or any of us for that matter. Anyway, she likes it when she cooks to have us all over for lunch. Well, anyway, I told her I'd come have a bowl of gumbo with her. (Man, I'm glad I did cause it was good and the crazy weather is cold and damp.) It was a nice lunch and we had a nice visit. But I was still thinking about finding me a new purse and some makeup. When I finished, M still hadn't shown up and MawMaw wanted me to call him and see if he was on his way. I'm thinking...I still have 35 minutes to go shopping. I call him...and guess what...he wants me to bring his lunch by the office because he can't get away. Well, you know...he did take me to get Sonic last night...and since he's too busy to get away, that means he's making money...which is a good thing...because business has been tough lately...and when business is good...I can go shopping! So I run his gumbo over to the car lot. He's on the phone so I just leave his food and blow him a kiss and leave. Saved by the phone. Twenty minutes left on my lunch hour...and I'm five minutes away from JC Penney's. I can just run in...just for a minute...to look at purses. I run in...and within minutes, I have the perfect purse in my hand and I'm heading to checkout. It's on sale for 33 1/3% off! WhooooHoooo! I'm in and out of JC Penney's in 10 minutes with the perfect purse in tow. WhooooHooooo! I tried to find a picture of it on Penney's website but it wasn't there. Suffice it to say...it's perfect! I feel slightly better. But I still don't think I've satisfied my shopping fix completely yet. Must go again, tomorrow.
